Belmont Abbey's Good closing in on several school scoring records

BELMONT – Tyshawn Good already has the highest single-season scoring average in Belmont Abbey College history.

At his current pace, he’ll end up breaking that record and perhaps many others as he concludes his four-year career with the Crusaders.

Good, currently averaging 25.4 points per game, is on pace to finish with at least 737 points this season and 1,888 career points – or numbers that would set a single-season scoring record and finish fifth in school history for career points.

“He’s a tremendous player and a tremendous scorer,” Belmont Abbey coach Stephen Miss said of Good, a 6-foot-1 senior from Jamaica, N.Y. “There’s no doubt he’s special at scoring the basketball, but there’s also a reason he’s able to do that.

“He works as hard as any player we have, whether it’s shooting before and after practice or doing film work to prepare for future opponents.”

Good earlier this season became one of five players in school history to score 40 or more points in a game when he tallied 40 at North Greenville in a 112-87 Conference Carolinas road victory in late November.
